Pacific/Pago_Pago

Lookup the zone info for a timezone id at a given UTC time.

Timezone offsets are in milliseconds.

const ZONES = [
  'UTC',
  'Pacific/Samoa',
  'America/New_York',
  'Pacific/Pago_Pago',
  'Asia/Tokyo',
  'Europe/Paris',
];

const now = new Date(2020, 2, 18, 12, 30, 0).getTime();
for (const zoneid of ZONES) {
  const info = TZ.fromUTC(zoneid, now);
  console.log(`${zoneid.padEnd(18)} -> ${JSON.stringify(info)}`);
}

UTC                -> {"abbr":"UTC","dst":0,"offset":0,"zoneid":"Etc/UTC"}
Pacific/Samoa      -> {"abbr":"SST","dst":0,"offset":-39600000,"zoneid":"Pacific/Pago_Pago"}
America/New_York   -> {"abbr":"EDT","dst":1,"offset":-14400000,"zoneid":"America/New_York"}
Pacific/Pago_Pago  -> {"abbr":"SST","dst":0,"offset":-39600000,"zoneid":"Pacific/Pago_Pago"}
Asia/Tokyo         -> {"abbr":"JST","dst":0,"offset":32400000,"zoneid":"Asia/Tokyo"}
Europe/Paris       -> {"abbr":"CET","dst":0,"offset":3600000,"zoneid":"Europe/Paris"}

const epoch = 1583633400000;
const zoneid = 'America/New_York';
const [utc, info] = TZ.fromUTC(zoneid, now)!;
console.log(utc);
console.log(JSON.stringify(info));
